Another Saturday Preparation Day

Saturday here is our early start day. We are up at 5:00 a.m. and have to be to the church by about 6:30. Today we were curious as to how many of our Institute students would attend. We knew most of them had gone out to the provinces for Khmer New Year.  We were pleasantly surprised to have 4 of them come (instead of our typical 6).  We were surprised, but pleased, that we had that many. This is a wonderful group of young adults!

After our class we visited on FaceTime with family, then went on out weekly grocery shopping errand. At Lucky's we found all but one item on our list, and that was an item that can wait.  We spent the rest of the morning at the apartment. We felt we needed to do more than just sit around this afternoon. After looking at the internet for ideas and options, we opted for trying to check a new store which is close to home. No luck, however. This store was still shuttered for the New Year holiday. Plan B: we went back to the Aeon mall for an item. This required going into new territory as we were sent on a detour.  We were successful with our mall trip. With having entered the mall in a different entrance turned into a blessing. We were also able to find a store we had not seen before which carried a printer cartridge we had been looking for. Double bonus: we were in and out of the mall in less than 30 minutes and had accomplished what we needed.

At the mall was an interesting display, likely because of the holiday. We thought this modern mall would be of interest for our photo today.
